Psalms

Chapter 81

  1. 1

    A Psalm of Asaph. God has stood in the synagogue of gods, but, in their midst, he decides between gods.

  2. 2

    How long will you judge unjustly and favor the faces of sinners?

  3. 3

    Judge for the indigent and the orphan. Do justice to the humble and the poor.

  4. 4

    Rescue the poor, and free the needy from the hand of the sinner.

  5. 5

    They did not know and did not understand. They wander in darkness. All the foundations of the earth will be moved.

  6. 6

    I said: You are gods, and all of you are sons of the Most High.

  7. 7

    But you will die like men, and you will fall just like one of the princes.

  8. 8

    Rise up, O God. Judge the earth. For you will inherit it with all the nations.
